Our organization also sponsors and conducts studies to assist in the transportation planning process, as well as providing opportunities for public participation in transportation planning and funding decisions. BACTS also has a contract with the Maine Department of Transportation (MaineDOT) to provide technical assistance for transportation related issues in rural Penobscot County, additional information can be found here.
